 * 1. Cell phone activity:** Students are given a page with an enlarged cell phone graphic on it. They are given a phone number and are asked to "dial" it as they hear it.


 * 2. Number manipulatives:** Students are given flashcards with the digits 0-9. A number is called out and they must arrange the digits in the correct order. This activity can be done using Uno cards or playing cards.


 * 3. Sports numbers:** Students give/research the uniform number of their favorite sports figures.


 * 4. Count by...:** Students count by multiples (by 2's, 5's, etc.)


 * 5. How many of each?:** Students draw/say the number of items in the classroom (desks, girls, boys, students, teachers, books, etc.)


 * 6. Math problems:** Students create and solve math problems in the target language.


 * 7. Combination lock:** A manipulative is made of a combination lock with the outline in the background and a movable tumbler (a circle with numbers around it attached with a paper fastener). Students take turns calling out combinations and their partners move the lock tumbler based on what they hear.
